Explore Penne's historical centre &
its off-the-beaten-track neighbourhoods, on foot!
​Are you curious about the town of Penne and what it has to offer? Its old neighbourhoods, historical homes, locales, shops and its best eateries? This is the perfect orientation walk for new residents or holiday home buyers, and especially for those who want to learn how to navigate the historical centre, get a feel for local Penne business and culture, pinpoint services/municipal offices, know where to find 'the best of the best' for eating, drinking and shopping, and accessing services in Penne’s historical centre, all from a local foreigner’s perspective. The walk will be split into 2 halves and will take 2 hours (with a coffee and/or lunch break mid-way).
A perfect city walk, for potential home-buyers or new residents to get oriented!
First we start at our meeting point: At the Duomo, then proceed to explore the town and its residential neighbourhoods (and nearby services) with easy and scenic navigational routes which you'll never find via a GPS or Google. I'll be pointing out specific locales like shops, good places to eat and drink and various points of administration which will help you if you’re settling in to live full-time or part-time. If you'd like to see and stop by a specific locale that is not on our route, no problem! We can veer a little off-track on request, along the way. Please note this is an orientation walk not a Penne historical tour.
Penne sits pristinely between the Apennine Mountains & Adriatic Sea and is the gateway for the National Park of Gran Sasso/Monti della Laga via the Lake Penne Regional Nature Reserve. Penne is also called; 'Città del Mattone' or 'City of Bricks,' as bricks made locally were used in the construction of every historical building and walkway. Throughout the town centre's neighbourhoods, all sorts of fascinating architecture can be seen!
